Description:
In 2006 Darren Hayes once again teamed up with live show designer and innovator Willie Williams (U2, R.E.M, David Bowie) to create a unique and wildly entertaining interactive live concert experience. Drawing on theatre, reality television and stand up comedy – it is a stage marriage that has to be seen to be believed. As John Aizlewood (London’s Evening Standard) wrote about Willie’s re-invention of Hayes...“There was more to dazzle the senses and clearly Hayes understood the notion of spectacle. Televisions cluttered the stage, while, with a craftsman’s touch he debunked the mystique of a rock gig: the green room where the band intermittently rested was actually on stage, the roadies’ work with the ever changing backdrops wasn’t hidden and before the encore, Hayes’ clothes change was silhouetted for all to see. Simple, but brilliant.

The 'Big Night In' tour played to a sold out audience of over 30 thousand in the UK before returning triumphantly home to Australia’s Sydney Opera House in July of 2006. These two spectacular performances were captured for posterity in crystal clear digital high definition. Mixed in Dolby 5.1 digital surround sound, the live DVD presents Darren Hayes in a performance that has since been regarded as one of the finest moments of his decade long career. The Sun Herald proclaimed, “He not only displayed his flawless vocal skills, which were enough to prompt gasps from audience members, he revealed his profound insight about the nature of celebrity".

Featuring specially commissioned video installations, unparalleled audience interaction and a Hayes more comfortable and in command of his vocal prowess than ever, ‘A Big Night In With Darren Hayes’ is exactlywhat the title suggests. A pop show with all of the trimmings and perhaps an extra helping of irony. Subversive and utterly original.As NME wrote, “The man’s a genius!”.
